America woke up to another chilling reminder of the war being waged against law enforcement. On 24th September, a gunman opened fire from a rooftop in the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) facility in Dallas, killing one immigration detainee and critically injuring two more before turning the gun on himself. What investigators found on the scene was even more disturbing. There were bullets marked with the words “ANTI-ICE.” This wasn’t just an attack on a building. It was an attack on ICE, an attack on law and order, and ultimately, an attack on America.
A Calculated Assault
The shooter was identified as Joshua Jahn and he had targeted the ICE building and even an unmarked van parked outside. This act left behind shattered glass, wounded detainees, and one dead victim. Authorities confirmed Jahn died by suicide before police could take him into the custody.
Mexico’s foreign ministry revealed one of the injured detainees was a Mexican national, pointing out how this reckless violence threatened lives beyond the country.
“ANTI-ICE” Weapons: A Political Statement
Federal investigators quickly found that Jahn’s motivations were not random. FBI Director Kash Patel revealed evidence of unused shot cartridges marked with the term “ANTI-ICE.” The shooter intended to send a statement, not merely bleed blood.
That message echoes what many conservatives have long warned: the radical left’s demonisation of immigration enforcement is fuelling violence against the men and women tasked with keeping America’s borders safe.
Trump Calls Out the Radical Left
Trump wasted no time calling out for the real danger. On Truth Social, he linked the Dallas attack to the toxic rhetoric from Democrats and activists who have spent years vilifying ICE.
“It has now been revealed the deranged shooter wrote ‘Anti-ICE’ on his shell casings. The continuing violence from Radical Left Terrorists, in the aftermath of Charlie Kirk’s assassination, must be stopped.”
Trump’s words cut through the media spin and pointed out that this is not just “random gun violence.” This is the direct result of a culture that rewards anti-police, anti-ICE, and anti-America rhetoric.
Pattern of Violence Against Conservatives and Law Enforcement
The Dallas shooting is just the latest in a series of targeted strikes. Earlier last month, a rooftop shooter killed conservative leader Charlie Kirk at a Utah university. Now, both ICE agents and inmates are under fire.
The pattern is clear that law enforcement and conservative individuals are being pursued by extremists emboldened by the left’s hostility towards authority. ICE, which was previously in the forefront of Trump’s commitment to deport illegal immigrants, is now a primary target.
America at a Crossroads
The FBI says it is doing a thorough investigation into Jahn’s history, but one thing is clear that the anti-ICE campaign is no longer just words and marches. It’s becoming violent. And unless left-wing leaders stop demonising ICE and start backing law enforcement, America will see more attacks like this.
For conservatives, it is to support ICE, Trump, and law and order before another radical left terrorist strikes.
